Larry Carig is a Mexican Loven Homosexual Faget

Someone wrote that on the wall of the bathroom here. I don't know who Larry Carig is, but I think that ironic hole in the universe I may have mentioned a few times is getting bigger because of this.

Don't worry folks, it's just a dream

Whilst making my weekly trip to Fred Meyer for supplies, I found proof that this must all be just a dream. The meat counter was stocked with plenty of cake and brownies. Yes, plenty of cake and brownies. Either this is a dream or whoever's in charge of life on this planet is one sick puppy.

And the winner is?

My grandpa's broken hip. A day spent lying on the floor of the garage, unable to move, until the mailman shows up to find you takes the cake. Sorry to all our runners up.

Seriously, today's blog posts read like a very bad prediction come true. And this is only one of several bad things going down today. Full moon at fault? Who knows.

What a day

Worst fucking day in a few months. I hate this shit.

My qi is all fucked up

It's pretty true. I don't know what's wrong today, heck, what's been wrong the entire last week. My qi is all fucked up and out of whack. I feel like I'm watching the world through a blurry tv screen and nothing looks right. It kind of sucks a bit.

Leaving the guild

It always sucks to get a new guild in WoW. It's just a game, but a huge part of it is the social aspect. I have a few friends in my current guild that I kind of feel like I'm turning my back on. At the same time, I have a lot of friends in the guild I'm applying to. The hardest part, I think, is the amount of memories I have with the old guild. Getting drunk in MC. Running instances until late at night. PvPing my saturdays away.

I guess though it's sort of a false sadness because I know why I'm really sad about it and it has nothing to do with WoW at all. Maybe it's better to detach myself from all of that in this way. I don't like it and I don't want to, but once it's done then I won't have to worry about it again.

And before the comment comes, I know, stop being a pussy, it's just a game, get over what happened with her, etc, etc. Screw you. I was in the guild from like a day or two before I met her so you fuck right the hell off.

Tired

Been going for like 4 days straight now. Work, work. I'm ready for a bit of normalcy to return.

Heroin

Between Trainspotting and Requiem for a Dream this week, I think it's safe to say I've no interest what-so-ever in so much as having a go with the stuff. Not one bit.

And then the rodeo

This may be the strangest week of my life.

Summer misogi

Cold, but fun. Very cold.

Something Wicked This Way Comes

Great book. Absolutely marvelous to read.

P.S. Toronto pics coming to facebook and myspace soon.

Heading home

Despite the rough start, this has been one hell of a trip. My first major league baseball game (I have a hankering to catch a hawks game when I get back for some reason), an expensive meal in the world's highest restaurant, and some good laughs with a bunch of brits (I shit you not, motherfucker).

Next up, a week of vacation time.

I should gps my luggage...

... so I can view the trip it takes when it gets lost next time. Apparently the airline has no clue where it went. Personally, I think it took some extra time to look around Denver, maybe catch a movie, and possibly spend a night with a $2 hooker.

Honestly, how the fuck are we still losing luggage in the year 2007? I can't check in for a flight and not board the plane without getting the 3rd degree, but somehow my luggage can still return to the aether from whence it came after I pass it off to the idiots at the front desk. That's progress, eh? God damn Canadians.

Sweet christ, it's spelled out so well

Loder: Are you a difficult guy to work with?

Keenan: I think the biggest problem working with me would be that I'm an only child, and so I have an internal dialogue that goes on that I just assume you can hear. Because as an only child, you have your own little world. Then you go into a situation where you're working with other people, and unless you actually vocalize what you're thinking, the other people will go through hell trying to figure out what's going on.

This one is also cool:

Loder: Why do you never include a lyric sheet with your albums? Why do fans have to go online to get them?

Keenan: Because I think reading is a thinking process, and I would prefer that people feel the album first, and just let it sink in. Because you might get something out of the music that you might not get from thinking about it, and watching the words go by. I usually put the lyrics online a month or so after the release of the album, but it's better to feel them first.

America needs another 9/11?

Why would any terrorist bother when they can sit back and watch us tear ourselves apart for them?

A couple things

First up, Black Snake Moan, I give you a star for being a form of entertainment. I give you half a star for showing me Christina Ricci's boobs, albeit for short amounts at a time. I give you another half star for having her run around in her panties for half the movie. I give you a star for Samuel Jackson being a badass. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to remove a star for you not having Justin Timerblake get his ass beat.

Secondly, why is Daft Punk such a fucking awesome group?

And finally, Akira is a pretty interesting flick. Kind of hard to sit still through, but that's 80s animation for ya. Good storyline nonetheless.

Patrick Norton left dl.tv?

My interest level in the show just took a sharp nosedive.

Truthiness

1) No matter how hard you will it, time will not stop moving forward.
2) The things we remember never happened.
3) The moment we live in is the only real thing we can believe in.
4) Death is an event to embrace, not something to fear. Only then does the facade of being alive come to an end.
5) Nothing can be trusted.
6) Faith is for the weak. The only thing that was meant to be is the end of everything. Outside of that, it's up to us to make things happen.
7) Your grandparents never walked through a foot of snow, up a mountain, in the middle of summer to get to school. They were lying to you to motivate you to be better than you think you can be.
8) You shouldn't need someone lying to you to better yourself.
9) Bad things happen to everyone and good things only happen to those that choose to see good things where they cannot possibly exist.
10) Beer is proof that god loves us and that he wants us to be happy. (Well, not really, but if in your moment of reality you are truly happy, you're probably intoxicated).
